I only have 4 months of school left and i have quite a big friendship group at school which would be amazing right?...
wrong!
the thing i can admit is that ill always be alone. I've never had a close friend that's NOT been one-sided, because i know I'm not theirs and i hate using the term "bff" its so cliche, but its so humbling when you say "your my best friend" and they wont say it back.
this is so aimed at one person but like idgaf
this person will forever choose their "popular friends" over me and that truly breaks my heart.
is it the way i look? the way i speak? like why cant i get equally returned love???
I just want someone to love me.
its always me starting convos or organizing plans with them, like if i stopped talking to them overall, they would even ask if i was okay. they would just let us drift.
i cant friendship break up with them, its not an option and i cant talk to them about it so it just feels like I'm digging myself a whole that goes deeper and deeper and deeper
i know ill always get chosen last and that really makes me upset. i wish being a human was easy.
After school i know ill barely have anyone left, so what does it feel like to be totally alone?

hello and welcome.
School can be both the best and worst of times and I'm really sorry to hear that you're feeling this way. It sounds incredibly tough to feel like you're putting in so much effort into your friendships and not getting the same in return.
Sometimes, people just don’t see what’s right in front of them, and that’s a reflection on them, not you. You deserve friends who appreciate and value you for who you are, who make you feel seen and loved.
It might be worth considering whether these friends truly deserve your time and energy. Friendships should be mutual, and it’s okay to seek out people who make you feel as important as you make them feel. And I know the thought of being alone after school is scary, but remember that this time is also an opportunity. You’ll have the chance to meet new people and build new, more balanced friendships. Further study or work, or other future endeavors become opportunities to find your tribe
